About Verity
Hi, I’m Verity! I hold a BA in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge (specialising in Zoology) and achieved A*A*A*A at A-Level in Biology, Chemistry, Maths, and Further Maths.
I have over 5 years of tutoring experience working with students aged 11–18+. Since graduating in 2025, tutoring has been my primary focus and passion. I specialise in GCSE and A-Level tuition, as well as guiding students through every stage of the Oxbridge application process—from entrance exam preparation to interview coaching.
Teaching is something I truly love. I find immense joy in helping students build confidence, unlock tricky concepts, and achieve their full potential. Outside of academic tutoring, I’m an avid researcher and conservationist—I’ve spent time conducting field research in tropical ecosystems across Costa Rica and the Bornean rainforest. I love bringing this real-world fieldwork experience into my teaching to share my genuine enthusiasm for STEM and the natural world with my students.
I am currently taking on new students and would love to support you on your academic journey!

Free 1-Hour Intro & Taster Session
To get started, I offer a completely free 1-hour introductory lesson. During the first half, we’ll discuss the student’s specific goals, target grades, areas for improvement, and any topics they want to focus on. For the remaining segment, we’ll dive into a taster lesson so I can understand their unique learning style and ensure I am fully prepared for our very first official session.
Bespoke, Visual & Flexible Teaching
Every lesson is fully personalised to the individual student. I create tailored PowerPoint presentations for every session, giving students a clear visual to follow along with during the lesson and a permanent revision resource they can refer back to anytime. Whether a student needs to focus on mastering tricky content, nailing subject-specific keywords, or refining exam techniques, I adapt my teaching and lesson focus to match their needs.
Structured Long-Term Planning & Weekly Updates
To ensure we cover everything before exams or deadlines, I design a comprehensive long-term roadmap tailored to the full duration of our tutoring relationship. Additionally, I provide parents with weekly feedback reports so they can easily track their child’s ongoing progress, performance, and confidence.
A Kind, Patient & Supportive Approach
I am a firm believer that there is no such thing as a silly question! My goal is to work entirely alongside the student as a team. Every student learns differently, and I am happy to adapt my teaching approach in whatever way works best—as long as the student is gaining knowledge, building confidence, and actually enjoying our lessons along the way.

Verity has been tutoring my child for a while and we’ve been really happy with the support she has given our child. She is patient, encouraging and takes the time to explain things clearly, adapting her approach to suit their needs. Our child has become much more confident and positive about their learning, which has been wonderful to see. She is reliable, approachable and clearly cares about helping her students make progress. We would happily recommend her to other parents looking for a dedicated and supportive tutor.
We’ve seen a real boost in our child’s confidence and understanding. Highly recommended!
Verity tutored my son as he was struggling with his science.
My son really enjoyed his lessons even though science was not one of his favourite subjects. She made the lessons interesting for him and went at his pace, ensuring he understood all the content.
I saw a jump in his grades come the next round of his exams, and he told me he felt far more confident in his knowledge and ability. Verity is always professional and on time. I would recommend her to anyone whose children need that extra help.I cannot recommend Verity highly enough! Our daughter was struggling with some of the more complex concepts in biology and chemistry, but Verity has an incredible talent for breaking difficult topics down into clear, manageable parts. The lessons are always well-structured, engaging, and supportive. If you are looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and approachable tutor, look no further.
We’re so grateful for all the help and support Verity has given our son with his GCSE Maths. He sometimes struggles to stay focused, but Verity has been incredibly patient with him and has really helped him improve. His grade has gone up significantly, and we couldn’t be happier with his progress. We’re so thankful for all her hard work and support and would definitely recommend her!
Verity has been tutoring my daughter for a while now. Initially, it was hard to find someone who could support her and break everything down so she could understand, but verity does this without asking, she’s kind and she’s definitely helping her with her studies
